Clear your cache and try again. :p

I just did, still can access it. It seems like it could just be a possible DNS issue:

craigslist | help > system status (http://www.craigslist.org/about/help/system-status.html)

everyone who cannot make craigslist work, enter this into the address bar, and follow the instructions for your OS.

Use OpenDNS (http://208.69.38.205/)

Use Google DNS guys.
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

My friend has this problem too. Switched to Google DNS and it's good again.

Something fishy here..now they have a different message up citing "technical issues". Also, craigslist has not responded to any media requests for comment. Like posted before it is a DNS problem, so perhaps their dns server got hacked?

The site works but when you try to click on an ad, it gives you an error:

Hello, Canada! Technical issues are currently affecting access to craigslist Canada sites for many users.

All hands are working to get this sorted out asap. Sorry for the inconvenience.

In the meantime, try clicking the city you'd like below:

All the links are still pointing to the .ca ending, you need to update the link to new domain.

Here is a link to a random apartment listing:
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/apa/2727370844.html

It will not work, however, if you change the URL to:
http://vancouver.craigslist.org/van/apa/2727370844.html

It will work fine...

Nope. I can browse all the categories but when i click on an Ad I get the violation error.

I just realized something. Everyone selling tickets for tonight's Canuck's game must be freaking out. No one is getting any responses lol.

You could also add the Firefox extension "Redirector".
Use the include pattern:
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/*
and redirect it to
http://vancouver.craigslist.org/$1
